Linux in Government: Unseating Incumbents

To effect a regime change, you first need to determine whether an incumbent has committed a violation of trust and if the incumbent has serious vulnerabilities. What does that do to a candidate, even a dictator? It creates the motivation for and a platform on which a change of leadership can occur. It provides the means to put the change into action. You can accomplish this, however, only if a viable alternative exists. You cannot change it if the incumbent shows no weakness in public. If the incumbent controls the media, then few will understand the violations or the vulnerabilities. . . .

Leader: Linux "jihad"? Less hysteria please...

It's not the first time Microsoft has had a political dig at Linux. The partly Microsoft-funded Alexis de Tocqueville institution brought out a report claiming Linux is less secure than Windows and therefore any government agency using it is threatening national security.
